Chapter 773: Rumors

Opened the Curiosity Academy, Lotte lacks nothing but money.

Language is a tool for human communication, words are language sublimation, Lotte wants to study science and technology, and spread out a huge stall, naturally involving various disciplines, learning various sciences If you do not master the tool of words, it is impossible to truly understand the topics, concepts and principles of other disciplines, and it is impossible to have an organized and rigorous habit of thinking.

Lotte just wants these children to know how to read words, and has no intention of cultivating these children into children, but in fact, he reads a lot of sage books, and it is useless for social development except for being an official, especially science and sage books are fundamentally different things, and they are completely incompatible.

Textbooks, what Lotte lacks right now is textbooks. In addition to language, mathematics is also very important, and mathematics is a discipline that studies concepts such as quantity, structure, change, and spatial models. Through the use of abstraction and logical reasoning, it is generated by counting, calculating, measuring, and observing the shape and motion of objects. Later mathematicians expanded these concepts to formulate new conjectures and to establish rigorously deduced truths from appropriately selected axioms and definitions.

As the so-called art has a specialization, no matter how much you have a vision, you can only play a guiding role at most, and you are not able to do it, thinking of this, Lotte suddenly remembered to recruit talents.

There are 21 city gates and water gates in the outer and inner cities of Bianliang City, and they were soon plastered with notices by the Lotte faction, and the Seeking Knowledge Academy recruited people who were proficient in mathematics in the world, and the salary was enough to be comparable to that of the officials of the six grades of the court.

The news spread quickly, and immediately attracted countless onlookers.

In the Song Dynasty, mathematics was not regarded as a tricky way as people think, but the Song people attached extreme importance to numbers.

Since the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty established the imperial examination system, although mathematics was not included in the special science and depth program, but in the Guozijian also opened arithmetic.

In the first year of Xianqing (656), Guozijian opened the mathematics college "Mathematics Hall", recruiting 30 students, and setting up a doctor of mathematics and an assistant professor of mathematics to preside over the daily teaching work.

There are six schools in the Tang Guozi Prison: Guozi, Taixue, Simen, Law, Calligraphy, and Arithmetic. The Tang court also asked Li Chunfeng to compile ten arithmetic scriptures, namely "Zhou Ji Sutra", "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", "Island Sutra", etc., collectively known as "Ten Books of Sutra", as official textbooks. Let mathematics enter the imperial examination, and you can become an official if you pass mathematics, which can be said to open up the atmosphere of the world at that time.

In the Song Dynasty, there was no explicit calculation of a subject in the imperial examination, but the Song Dynasty's emphasis on mathematical talents was to some extent greater than that of the Tang Dynasty. In other eras, the Song Dynasty was significantly different, with a greater emphasis on industry and commerce, resulting in an unprecedented economic prosperity. In the Song Dynasty, there were many high-ranking officials in the ministry and even officials who were in charge of the court, and they were all merchants.

There are many important inventions that appeared in the Song Dynasty, such as the automatic timekeeping machinery instrument used to observe the sky, the water transport meteorological station, the compass that can measure the magnetic declination and identify the direction, the movable type printing book, the watertight cabin, the world's earliest paper money Jiaozi, etc., in this context, understand that mathematical talents are naturally needed by the society, so there are quite a lot of Song Dynasty officials are science and engineering masters, and Su Song, who is in the same era as Shen Kuo, is also a scientist, and the official is in the position of Zaifu.

When Huizong of the Song Dynasty, in response to the internal needs of many years, the arithmetic school was re-established, and the arithmetic civilians and in-service officials at that time could be elected to the study industry, and the arithmetic accounted for the test, and the method of taking the scholar was similar to the Taixue House, and the third-class Tuen En, with Tongshi, Dengshi, and Jiangshilang as the second.

People who are good at mathematics have become officials, and who is willing to come if the salary is low, so Lotte recruits people who know how to count, so they are willing to spend such a large capital.

……

The news of Lotte's recruitment of people who are proficient in arithmetic spread in Biandu City, and then the name of the Knowledge Seeking Academy also spread in Biandu, and naturally it also fell into the hands of people with ulterior motives.

"I heard that Nale Xiao'er opened some kind of knowledge academy outside the city, recruited hundreds of boys, and even practiced it with a sergeant's drill ceremony?"

In the study, Liang Shicheng squinted and lay on the recliner, and the maidservants on both sides gently beat his legs.

"Mr. Enfu, I've heard about this too!" The head of the hundred officials of the 10,000 people under the Great Song Dynasty, the ruling Wang Huang stood in front of Liang Shicheng like a filial son, like a filial son and a virtuous grandson.

The eunuchs of the Great Song Dynasty all bowed their heads and looked respectful when they saw the ruler, but after Cai Jing was the prime minister in this dynasty, the ruler no longer had dignity, and Wang Hao once again lowered the lower limit of the dignity of the ruler.

Liang Shicheng still squinted his eyes and sighed: "It's a pity that Yang Jianna, since he entered the palace, he has known our family for more than 30 years, and I didn't expect to die in the hands of an afterlife so unexplained, our family's heart is ......."

Wang Hao hurriedly followed and said: "Manager Yang is dedicated to doing things for the official family, I didn't expect it to end up like this, and Manager Yang feels a pity in the next place!" ”

At this time, Liang Shicheng opened his eyes and motioned to the maids to bring the teacups, Wang Hao's maidservants had more eyesight, and hurriedly took the first step to bring the tea that was placed aside, and served Liang Shicheng to drink it with a smirk.

After taking a sip of tea, he said without being salty or light: "These people in our family are not your officials, these people in our family must be disabled first before they can serve the official family, and they have to wait diligently after they are favored, and there is no way back, otherwise Manager Yang is a role model for our family." ”

Wang Hao hurriedly said: "Mr. Enfu has the holy favor to believe......

"But Nale Xiao'er didn't let our family live in peace......" Before Wang Hao finished speaking, Liang Shicheng interrupted his words.

With a sneer, Wang Hao said: "Mr. Enfu, rest assured, Nale Xiao'er is still the emperor, and he is already a person with no power or position, and he will no longer be able to make any waves!" ”

Liang Shicheng sat up, his eyes were full of jealousy: "This Le Xiaoer is not a good person, our family is very scruples about him, even if this Le Xiaoer goes to work and is idle at home, our family is not at ease!" ”

In the Great Song Dynasty, the losing party was released or dismissed from the field during the party struggle, which meant the defeat of the political enemy and the end of the party struggle.

But Liang Shicheng doesn't think so, from a former ally to today's enemy, Liang Shicheng knows a little bit about Lotte, especially Lotte, who often plays cards not according to the routine, and has to be jealous.

Hearing Liang Shicheng say this, Wang Hao questioned: "What does Mr. Enfu mean ......"

At this moment, Liang Shicheng's eyes lit up: "In the matter of the Seeking Knowledge Academy, if you make some chapters for our family, you can't clean up Nale Xiao'er, but you also have to cut some of Nale Xiao'er's holy dependents." ”

"I'll figure it out later!" Taking advantage of Liang Shicheng's momentum, he has today's status, how dare Wang Hao brush Liang Shicheng's meaning.

At the same time, Wang Haoxin is very clear, and Liang Shicheng also knows that relying on the Knowledge Academy will not be able to defeat Lotte, but it can affect Lotte's image in the mind of the Son of Heaven, causing the Son of Heaven to alienate Lotte more and more, so as to achieve the purpose of weakening Lotte.

"It's not early, and our family is tired!"

Seeing that Wang Hao understood his intentions, Liang Shicheng sighed, got up and went to the inner house to rest in the servant girl's service.

……

As a result, there were gradually rumors in Biandu City.

In the knowledge college in the south of the city, hundreds of soldiers have been recruited, and the sound of drills can be heard every day, and it is suspected that they are raising private soldiers.

At first, these rumors were just secretly circulating, and then they began to become street talks, and even became more and more intense.

Of course, the vast majority of people are dismissive of this kind of rumor, who is Lotte, he is the son-in-law of the Son of Heaven who rides the dragon, and he is the great hero who led the army to destroy Xia, his loyalty is unquestionable, how can he rebel.

Soon, the Seeking Knowledge College once again became the focus of attention of the people of Biandu, and even many good people went to investigate, only to find that it was a school, and the sound of reading was often heard outside, and it was not a place similar to a barracks at all.

Moreover, there are hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops in Biandu alone in the Great Song Dynasty, and how big a wave can more than 100 children make.

……

Tu Si's subordinates have cultivated several batches of fine works, which have been spread out under Lotte's arrangement, and they naturally know a lot about the things in Biandu, as if they have the appearance of a second Imperial City Division, but the Imperial City Division is more secretive.

"Master Hou, the rumors and rumors in the entire Biandu City are saying that Master Hou is raising private soldiers and is suspected of deliberately rebelling." When rumors just came from Biandu City, Tu Si and Lotte knew.

Soon, Lotte realized that something was unusual, and instructed Tu Sidao: "Check out, who is behind Le's troublemaker?" ”

Since the destruction of Western Xia, there have been more and more enemies of his family, and it is not clear who is making trouble behind his back.

After living in Biandu for more than ten days, the elder brother-in-law Li Liang and Tong Lan got up and returned to Hangzhou, shouldering the task of being handed over by Lotte, and now there are more and more gold and silver mines found in Dongying, so they naturally have to go out to recruit troops and horses and recruit craftsmen, and now they have established their goals, and the demand for gold and silver is getting bigger and bigger.

It is said that the primitive capital accumulation in the early stage of capitalism is discovery and plundering, and according to the concept of social development of capitalism, this is the inevitable law in the early stage of the development of capitalism.

The knowledge of the previous life is still very useful in this era, and Lotte knows that since this is an inevitable law, he can't go against the tide, and instead of these gold and silver mines for Dongying people to mine, it is better to use it himself, and it can be regarded as a good thing to benefit the country and the people.

His ultimate goal was to sprout the embryonic stage of capitalism in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries in advance in China, and the Great Song Dynasty now also has the basic conditions for the budding development of capitalism, and it can even be said that it is on the eve of the germination of capitalism, and if the steam engine appears, it can be regarded as the germ and catalyst of capitalism, and it will make the industrial revolution come in advance.

Different from Wang Mang, a historical reformer, Wang Mang's so-called reform is to go against history and reverse history according to idealism, while Lotte is to take advantage of the trend and advance things three or four hundred years later, which is completely different in concept and meaning.

Of course, Lotte is also afraid, afraid that he will not pull out the seedlings and help them grow.

However, considering the history of "sheep eating people" of British capital, the Great Song Dynasty did not restrain the rich from annexing land, which caused a large number of people to lose their land and pour into the city to work, and the urbanization of the Great Song Dynasty was also the highest in the 12th century, even much higher than that in the early 21st century in later China, which means that the Great Song Dynasty has reached the eve of the budding capitalism.

Soon, with his own inference, Lotte became bold.

……

"Master Hou, a noble person from the palace came to the house, saying that he asked Lord Hou to go and receive the edict."

On this day, Lotte was writing textbooks in the study room of the back house, only to hear a maid outside the door hurriedly pushing the door in to report, and even forgot to give the gift.
